June 25th, 1962-1964 (Syndicated)
A daily ninety-minute talk show hosted by Steve Allen and sponsored by Westinghouse. Steve Allen's free wheeling 90 minute talk show for Westinghouse was a combination of talk, variety and Steve playing the piano. He had very much free reign and many consider this period of time Steve's best at creating a very relaxed variety show, sprinkled with political and social relevant issues included.
In many markets this syndicated series was scheduled opposite THE TONIGHT SHOW that Allen had started eight years earlier giving way to successors, Jack Paar and Johnny Carson.
This is the premiere broadcast.
NOTE: This audio air check was microphone recorded containing a slight hum. Overall sound is very good. It contains the complete opening by the announcer, followed by an incomplete opening comedy monologue by Steve Allen.
